The technique Process of Extracting

of minimizing or converting energy from
eliminating waste materials waste instead of
waste into reusable sending it to
generation at its resources by landfills reduces
origin, focusing collecting, waste volume,
on prevention sorting, and generates
rather than processing renewable
post-generation energy, and
treatment. improves
sustainability
• Incineration
Method of burning waste at high
temperatures to convert it into
residue and gaseous products.

• Landfilling
Disposing waste by burying it in
designated areas prevents
environmental contamination and
human health risks.

• Composting
Controlled decomposition of organic
waste from industrial sources into
nutrient-rich compost for soil
enhancement and resource recovery.
• Pyrolysis
Thermal decomposition of waste materials in
the absence of oxygen to produce valuable
products like biochar, biofuels, and gases
while minimizing environmental impact.

• Plasma Arc Gasification

High-temperature conversion of waste
materials using plasma energy to generate
clean synthetic gas and vitrified solid residue
for efficient waste management.

• Biological Reprocessing
Using biological processes to convert organic
waste into useful products like compost or
biogas for sustainable waste management.
